Selection Process
The process of selecting miss Rwanda begins with a team of organisers, led by Rwanda Inspiration Backup – touring the four provinces of the country and the capital city of Kigali to select five contestants in each, who then go through a mini-camp before heading to the semi-finals.
At the semi-finals, out of 25 girls, 10 girls are eliminated to remain with 15 girls who head to a two-week boot camp, leading to the grand finale.
The selection process follows strict rules and guidelines, where the best of the contestants are put to different challenges ; out of which judges decide the winners based on the girls’ ability to become a role model and a compelling figure that actively contributes to the country’s social and cultural progress.
